lambda = 5500e-008; // Wavelength of light used, cm
N = 15000; // No. of lines per inch of grating, lines/inch
a_plus_b = 2.54/N; // Grating element, cm
n = 1; // Order of diffraction for principal maxima
// As (a+b)*sin(theta_n) = n*lambda and for maximum possible order of spectra sin(theta_n) = 1
// So (a+b) = n*lambda, solving for n
n = (a_plus_b)/lambda; // The highest order spectrum which can be seen in monochromatic light
printf("\nThe highest order spectrum which can be seen in monochromatic light = %d", n);
// Result
// The highest order spectrum which can be seen in monochromatic light = 3
